Default Can anyone help?

Hello all, I am starting back at college, full time, in about 3 months and I need some kind of income that will give me more than a weekend job would. I want to earn money online and I need some help starting out. Can anyone help me?

Thanks very much, Corey.

What are your hobbies / Interests?

There is no point try to get into something that you know very little / nothing about as you will be out of your depth very quickly and loose interest...

Think about what you know or what you can offer people...

There are no "make money systems" - it's every man for himself on the internet, everyone is trying to sell something so you need to do some research on your chosen project before you jump in.

At the very least you will need a website - can you build one yourself or do you need help / someone to build it for you?

Do you want to sell goods? (do you have the time to buy and sell or do you want to sell other peoples goods - dropselling?)

How much do you want to earn?

Do you have any start up capital?

These are all questions that you need to be asking yourself...

I build small business website's - so if you want to bounce any ideas off me then go right ahead, I will try and point out any pitfalls in any ideas you come up with

I enjoy playing with websites and making templates but im not all that good and there are hundreds of people doing that... i have money to buy products but the only place for selling i can think of is ebay and most people expect to pay next to nothing on there. I an willing to research, have a go at what ever i can. i am wanting to earn 50 - 100 pound a week... just enough for me to survive so i can spend the money from my weekend job on what ever i like.


Thanks for the reply

As Tony rightly says the best thing to do is to concentrate on your strengths, what you know and what you enjoy.

I always try and build and invest in websites on topics that I enjoy not just for the short term but for the long term.
